tv   The Willis Report  FOX Business  October 27, 2013 10:00pm-11:01pm EDT

10:00 pm
your dollars year. that is our show. see you next week. "money" toda. have a great weekend. the willis report is next. gerri: hello, everybody, i'm gerri willis. tonight on "the willis report," scams and obamacare. attorneys general have new warnings for consumers. virginia's ag is here tonight. also the obama administration says it wants to hold people accountable for the obamacare mess. >> we want to make sure the taxpayers get their money's worth, so money as it's spent we will make sure people accountable. gerri: so far the only person fired is this single mom from florida. our legal team is here. and amazon.com has big plans, but not everybody likes what it's doing with all its billions. >> we're pretty excited about this. gerri: we're watching out for you tonight on "the willis report." ♪ ♪
10:01 pm
gerri: we'll have all that and more but, first, our top story, where is the accountability when it comes to obamacare? where does the buck stop, who's taking responsibility? hhs secretary kathleen sebelius again today refusing to take responsibility for what has been a disastrous web site rollout. instead, she said we all need to look forward, not backward. the problem is, she's the problem, and no amount of looking forward will fix something that was destined to fail from the get go. with more on this, steve moore, editorial board member for the wall street journal. steve, it is great to have you here. to get started, i want you to hear what kathleen sebelius had to say when she was asked directly about this issue, accountability. here she is. >> i think the most important thing is fix it, and that's certainly what the president
10:02 pm
expects, it's what i expect, and that's what we're really in the process of doing. we have had new talent in technology come in, we have new management talent, and we want it to be a smoothly-operating marketplace for every american who really needs affordable health care. it doesn't operate that way now. it's far from being optimum, and we won't stop until it is. gerri: i didn't hear the buck stops there, did you hear that, steve, in that answer? what do you make of it? >> i sure didn't. and by the way, in an earlier interview that i think was earlier this morning about which she was asked whether she might have to resign, she basically went on a tirade against the republicans. it's hard to see how the faulty rollout of this obamacare web site can be blamed on the party that had really nothing to do with it in the first place. look, i think this is a big issue of core competency, gerri.
10:03 pm
can they pull this off. and, look, the fact that everybody's pointing fingers like abbott and costello, it gets around the whole issue of can the government ever pull this off? they said maybe in six weeks it'll be pix fixed, but i'll bet a dime to a dollar we're going to be having the same conversation six weeks from now. gerri: how long will it take? before we get off the sebelius topic, i want you to hear about who she works for. listen to this. [laughter] >> the majority of people calling for me to resign, i would say, are people who i don't work for. gerri: well, so she says i don't work for them. the majority of the people calling for me to resign, i would say, are people i don't work for. wow. i thought she worked for the american people, what did you think? >> no, gerri, we work for her. she doesn't work for us. don't you understand that? [laughter] that's the whole idea behind obamacare. that was a pretty amazing comment to make by the secretary
10:04 pm
of hhs, but with it also, i think, it kind of expresses an arrogance in this administration that they are kind of above the people and the rulers. that's, by the way, one of the reasons i've never liked this program very much. i mean, look, let's just kind of come right down to it. it is just an example of the fact that central planning doesn't work very well. i mean, nobody could have really pulled this off. how are you going to create a health care system for 200, 250 million people? gerri: well, you say central planning, but really what was going on here, this program was so hurt, so stung, so injured by the fact that it was run by politicians who were making political decisions about the program. we're not going to show you all the prices because you'll only get mad, because the prices are high. things like that, i think, really hurt this effort. and news out tonight, a sequence of events that you need to hear about, steve, a company called qssi, one of the i.t. firms that testified just this week. you probably heard him in front of the energy and commerce committee. >> yeah, right. gerri: he was asked who is
10:05 pm
leading this so-called tech surge, and that's what the administration is saying is going to fix all these problems, right? a tech surge. the guy said, i don't know, i haven't heard. well, 24 hours later jeff science says it's qssi that's leading the surge. and they didn't know. is anybody talking to anybody else? >> that was an incredibly embarrassing moment, gerri, there's no question about it. when the head of the company says he doesn't know he's running and the next day they say you're running it. look, could this get any worse? one other point i think i'd like to make here, let's just suspend this thing for a year. it's not ready to go. the american people are scratching their head, no idea what to do. you've got employers, by the way, that are starting to cut the health care saying, oh, you'll go into the exchanges that don't work. so this is not just a laughing matter, this is a real danger to people that they're not going to have health insurance on january 1st. gerri: i agree with you. sebelius, she's going to testify next week on wednesday in front
10:06 pm
of the same committee we were just describing. we're going to be there, by the way -- >> it's going to be a packed room, i guarantee you. gerri: what do you want to hear her say? >> well, i want to hear her say i'm sorry and i'm responsible, and those are two things she hasn't said. but, you know, i don't know politically how she survives this. there has to be some head that rolls when you have $600 million that's down a rat hole. you have to have some accountability. remember, this was the administration that said that they're going to have record transparency, accountability and credibility. and they have none of that when it comes to their signature program. gerri: well, new headlines on the program, not 600 million, now a billion -- >> i'm already behind! [laughter] gerri: it changes every day. it's hard to keep up. steve, thanks for coming on. >> thank you, have a great weekend. gerri: you too. now we want to know what you think. here's our question tonight, who does kathleen sebelius really work for, president obama or us?
10:07 pm
the american people? log on to gerri willis.com, vote on the right-hand side of the screen. we'll share the results at the end of tonight's show. well, you know, anytime that you have a brand new, spanking entitlement program like obamacare, one of the feds are throwing billions of dollars at it, and you'll have waste. we saw that with the web site. now comes the fraud. attorney generals around the country are warning people not to fall victim to the latest scams, and virginia's ken cucinelli is with us now. he's one of the ags warning of problems. what's happening in virginia? how are people getting scammed over obamacare? >> well, we've spotted this around the country and, of course, through the internet they can reach anywhere. and a lot of our scammers that come to us via the internet or e-mail aren't even in the country. they set up in other places. and so we've put out consumer alerts on this, we've seen it in vermont, we've seen it in illinois. so this is a concern, as you said, anytime you have a new program like this -- and i would
10:08 pm
go farther than that, gerri. when a tornado hits oklahoma, phone calls start coming. hey, help the people in oklahoma, just give me your credit card and authorize me to run it. gerri: true. >> so, but in this case now they're gathering all your personal information. it is an identity thief's dream -- gerri: oh, it absolutely is. >> the health care web sites, and that's what we're concerned about. gerri: one i've heard about and it's consistent all over the country, people are getting phone calls, and they're told that if you give us your social security number, we'll give you the obamacare national health card. guess what? there's no national health card. it doesn't exist. >> right. gerri: this is a scam. you shouldn't pick up the phone. >> and, gerri, a simple, a simple defense -- and this is the simplest rule for folks to remember -- and older folks are usually the ones first targeted, if you don't initiate the contact, it's fake. if you don't initiate the
10:09 pm
contact, it's fake. that's almost a guarantee. gerri: well, and here's the bottom line -- >> seen it all over the country. gerri: -- the government isn't calling people. the government is not calling you about obamacare. they're not calling me, they're not calling anybody. you have to initiate all the action on your own. it's up to you, it's on you which is one of the issues here. >> right. gerri: we talk about the phone calls, people are also being told that, you know, we'll help you sign up for obamacare, send us $100, we'll help you navigate the process because the process is broken, and people are confused, and they're worried. it's sort of a perfect petri dish for this kind of thing to happen. >> oh, it absolutely is. gerri: yeah. people are so upset. people on medicare are worried that their medicare's going to be taken away or discontinued, or their doctor's going to leave them. they're so anxious that they are ripe for this kind of scam. >> yes. and like i said, older folks tend to get targeted more in scams like this, and it's high
10:10 pm
pressure scam. and when you've got it falling apart like it is, and i listened to you talking to steve moore, certainly this is a disaster of a rollout. it's an easy extra hook to just say, hey, we can help you get true this mess because everybody knows it's a mess. it gives it a real feel to it, and it makes it more troublesome to block and to stop. and really it would be nice if we could just pull the plug on obamacare rather than on everybody's insurance, because this is a fraud opportunity that is screaming out for lots and lots of bad guys to victimize lots and lots of people. gerri: it absolutely is. and it's happened with every program the president's rolled out to assist consumers. it always happens so you know to watch out for it. another issue that i think folks need to be aware of, look, if you're googling, enroll in obamacare to find an expert on anything and you google that and roll into obamacare, you get four million hits. four million hits. how are you supposed to know the
10:11 pm
right place to go? >> well, and google and bing and yahoo!, they're used by the bad guys. they will buy likely words that you're going to search with so that they capture your click. and that's how this fraud process can begin. anding google, frankly, they may say otherwise, but they're not very effective at stopping that on the fly when new fraudsters pop up. and so it's -- given that so many people search that way now and find what their starting point, it's a very dangerous tool for the bad guys to use. so we've got to be very care. and, again, it's so important for people to be on guard because once you've given that information out, there's no getting it back. gerri: that's really well put. the web site is healthcare.gov, that's what it is. don't go anywhere else, you know? and remember, you may have to go a couple other places. you may have to go to your state exchange and then to an insurance brokerage as well.
10:12 pm
so you've got to be super careful. if you want to know more about this, gerri willis.com. i wrote about it, a blog on that, you can check it out. you'll know exactly what to take a look for. attorney general cucinelli, thanks for coming on tonight. and you know what? we didn't even talk about the fact that you're running for governor in virginia. >> oh, here and there, 11 days. and obamacare is a central issue. obamacare is going to be a reference tunnel in my race. referendum in my race. gerri: thanks for coming on and taking a few minutes out of your busy day. >> blood to do it. gerri: thanks so much. well, we've got more to come this hour including reasons why you should shy away from a fight. we'll tell you how to negotiate. and next, it's not just the glitches surrounding health care ott.gov, but the lack of transparency for what was supposed to be, you remember this, the most transparent administration ever. ♪ ♪ >> one of the contractors who built the obamacare web site testified before congress today.

[ male announcer ] it shouldn't be this hard. with creditcards.com, it's easy to search hundreds of cards and apply online. creditcards.com. gerri: obamacare may be putting your personal information at risk. if you were actually able to sign on to the web site, your info, your personal data could be hacked. that's according to security experts, it's rated led with big -- riddled with big holes. the chief technology officer, great to see you again. chris, thanks for coming on the show. i've got to tell you, you know, there's all this talk about a tech surge. i have never even heard this phrase before. is it likely to fix what's wrong with obamacare? >> yeah. i've never heard the term before, and, you know, just throwing a lot more people at a problem in software engineering
10:17 pm
doesn't necessarily solve it. we have a phrase for this in software engineering, we say you can't have, a woman -- nine women can't have a baby in one month. so just putting more resources on it isn't going to fix it any faster. [laughter] gerri: chris, that's really smart. that's well put. the new, you know, sheriff in charge of obamacare now is saying if that they can get this thing fixed by november, by the end of the month in november. is that a possibility? because i've heard other people say you really need to rebuild the whole thing. >> yeah. when you lock at performance -- look at performance problems, performance problems are really in the inherent design, in the ark tech cur of the whole system. and a lot of times they're not just easily fixed. you can't just throw some more computers back there and all of a sudden it's running faster. from the my experience, these types of serious performance problems can take months to fix. so i know they can fix it, but meeting this deadline of november 30th or even december 15th, i'm skeptical.
10:18 pm
gerri: so we have lots of problems, right? we have the problem with signing on and opening an account, right? you hav that problem. you have the problem that insurers are not getting the data that they need, and then you have the third problem that people aren't getting the information they need out of the site. they can't figure out how much they're on the hook for, they don't even know what their out of pocket costs are, so the problems exist at multiple levels here. it seems to me that there's lots of changes that need to be made. do you think the way the government goes about doing this i.t. programming actually works for any project? >> yeah. it seems like these really large projects that take a long amount of time are very difficult. if you look at the way most successful, you know, companies that are on the internet work, they build things slowly, and they add them incrementally over time so they can test, they can add new features and they can test. and that's been a proven way of building, you know, these large web sites. and to just build, try to get it
10:19 pm
all done all at once, it's almost impossible. so these large projects are almost doomed to fail. gerri: one of the issues is transparency, and we talked about that a lot on this show. this president promised to be the most transparent president ever, and yet with this specific web site they refused share information about how many people were going to it, how many people were actually able to get enrolled. there's a company that typically will count up the number of visitors to a web site, and people share that information. the government said we don't want that shared. it's one of those things, one of those details that gets lost in the conversation, but it tells you something about how the administration's thinking about this site. what do you make of it? >> yeah. the site is something that, you know, they've signed up for service. they're getting that information. it actually is pretty detailed, it can show demographics, age, sex, the educational background, even the race in cases of the
10:20 pm
people visiting the site. and i guess they don't want people to sort of understand who's coming to that site. so they want to -- i think they want to see that information for themselves first and then maybe let it out publicly. gerri: that's not the way most of silicon valley works. it's interesting to see what they're choosing to do here. chris, thanks for coming on. appreciate it. good to see you. >> sure thing, it was a pleasure. gerri: thank you. and a programming note more you, this monday we're going to be doing into call-in show, two of them, in fact, 6 and 9 p.m. eastern time on monday. now, we're going to answer your questions from e-mail, twitter, facebook, and we're going to take your phone calls. you see the number right there? again, that's monday night at 6 and 9 p.m. your calls, your comments, your questions, we want to hear from you. we know this is the biggest consumer story of at least the last year, probably longer. and when we come back, kathleen sebelius hasn't lost her job, but one obamacare call center worker has. but is the reason for firing her legal? next, we answer the question how

day. she's the can co-founder of she negotiates consulting and training. vicki, thanks for being here. you've got a one, two, three that i love on how to do this and how to think about negotiating that i think is great. starting with negotiating doesn't start until somebody says no. tell us about that. >> that's right. well, if someone is ready to say yes to your negotiation position, it probably means you haven't asked for enough. [laughter] a lot of people -- gerri: that's a great point. >> a lot of people, a lot of people including a lot of women are afraid to ask for a raise or a promotion or a bonus because they don't want to -- they don't know how to deal when somebody says no to them. so the first rule of negotiation is really find out what your negotiation partner wants and needs, and then sell yourself or your proposition as an answer to those desires and needs. it's really pretty easy. gerri: what do you say to women about, you know, handling the
10:26 pm
fact that somebody is telling you no? >> usually i just ask them what it is that's standing in the way of their asking for something, and often it's usually, well, you know, i was taught in school or by my parents that i should just work hard and people would notice that i was doing a great job, and i shouldn't have to ask for anything. my generation was taught not to ask a guy out for a date. gerri: well, absolutely true. okay, so your bargaining partner will be happier if you make several concessions than if he gets what he thinks he wants. so sometimes it works out better for everybody if there's give and take and people feel like there was really bargaining and bartering going on, right? >> right. absolutely. if i come to an employer and i say i want a 5% raise and they say, done, then i think, oh, no, i could have gotten 7, i could have gotten 10. [laughter] so, yeah, people feel better when they're given the opportunity to go back and forth

and to talk about what's fair, what's right, what feels good. and this is especially important at work because you're going to be with these people next year, hopefully, and the year after that. you don't want to leave a bad taste in anyone's mouth. gerri: you say it's never about the money. >> well, it's never about money, it's about what money can buy. and often if you look underneath the money, you can find differences in what you value between your and your negotiation partner so that it's easier to trade across issues. in other words, something might be really valuable to me but low cost to you, writing off, for instance, a high movie charge on my hotel bill is an example and one that i asked once when i was unhappy with the hotel service. gerri: that's a great point. >> it was easy for them to write
